The Outcast's Views

Vaan - He seems far too eager about the world. I was like that once--at least until my dreams were decidedly crushed. Not only by my father, but by my own people. I get the feeling he too has experienced such pains in his life. Perhaps if we weren't on different sides, I could have one day called him a friend.

Penelo - That boy's partner, or perhaps a little more. She's obviously got a close bond with him. A cute woman, she is. She reminds me alot of myself when I was young and in love. She seems a bit too tenderhearted for the world we live in, but perhaps that is best.

Balthier - Such a charming man he seems to be, but perhaps with a bit too much ego. He's prideful and flirtatious, which is probably an understatement. His devotion is strong though--I can see why my sister likes him. Perhaps I could see more if I tried, but I've never really preferred brunettes.

Fran - My sister, we share the same blood. Not only of kin, but of sisterhood. You too ventured out on your own to see the world. Yes, you are truly someone I could have called sister. I just wish our other sisters could have seen the hope this world had to offer.

Llyud - My father, a member of your own race, has done so much damage to your kind. If I could apologize for him, I sincerely would--and with more than words. Perhaps one day you can forgive him. Holding on to bitterness will waste you away--I've learned it firsthand.

Ashe - The queen of a city in Ivalice--she seems quite stoic, but obviously there is something about her that resonates. Her resolve is very clear--I could see it in her eyes. I suppose all royalty has somewhat of an aloof quality about them.

Basch - He reminds me so much of Velis in many ways. His determination to protect, his chivalry, his soft spoken nature--so many things. An attractive man that I hope the queen appreciates, for there are too few men like that left in the world.

Filo & Kytes - These two are strong beyond their years. Fate thrusted them into life so early it would seem. I see a bright future for them though, especially with the bonds they have created, and the experiences they will no doubt see.

Feolthanos - Father, my beloved father. I don't know what caused you all of this grief. I don't know what made you do all that you did to your people. But, I hope one day they can see the side of you that mother spoke of so fondly. I too wish I could have seen it, but I will not be angry, nor bitter. Instead, I will wish an end to your suffering.

Velis - My love, my best friend, my everything. I loved you more than you could ever know. I was so hurt when you never came back from Nalbina and the war. I knew in my soul that something had happened to you. But, I'm glad you are at peace now, and I will see you soon. Maybe in death, we will know peace.
